"Then I'll have to go to the palace too." No matter what, no one could stop him. Mo Xuanyin expressed the firmness of the person in his heart word by word.
Gu Xiqian looked at him like this, and didn't open her mouth to stop it.
"I think that if the news of the King of Yunnan is seriously ill is released, I'm afraid the emperor won't want you to go back, so he will have to let you go back." Gu Xiqian had an idea and gave him an idea.
After thinking about it, Mo Xuanyin felt that there was nothing wrong with Gu Xiqian's words.
"Tomorrow I will enter the palace to see the emperor, if you don't come back in the evening, you will find a way to spread the news." Mo Xuanyin took a breath, and his eyes couldn't help but darken.
"Be careful." Since he was going, she couldn't stop it, so Gu Xiqian could only advise.
After all, it is well known that the emperor is violent and insatiable in dealing with people, and he will do whatever he wants to get everything he wants.
Mo Xuanyin rashly rejected his good intentions yesterday, how could he easily agree to Mo Xuanyin?
"Rest early." Being cared for by Gu Xiqian like this, Mo Xuanyin suddenly felt warm in his heart, and couldn't help but smile and said gently.
Not long after Gu Xiqian left, the candles in Mo Xuanyin's room kept on.
I don't know how late he fell asleep last night.
The next morning, Mo Xuanyin was afraid of delaying the time to return to China, so he went to the morning court very early.
"I'm sorry for my father-in-law." It's been so long that the emperor hasn't come, Mo Xuanyin can only give the public some sweetness, let him go to the good words and urge him.
"It's too polite, you just wait here, I'll help you do it." The father-in-law swayed and walked towards the outside of the main hall.
Then, the emperor finally arrived.
Mo Xuanyin got up directly and bowed his hand, and said, "Your Majesty, the ministers have something to ask for. ”
"What?" The emperor looked at him for a while, sat down on the dragon chair and raised his hand to signal Mo Xuanyin to sit down next to him.
"Your Majesty, the minister's father is sick, so the minister wants to return to the country to fulfill his son's responsibilities." After Mo Xuanyin sat down, he bowed his hand again.
The emperor frowned, looking puzzled, "The king of Yunnan is sick?" Why didn't I know? ”
"Yesterday, the minister received a letter from home, and he didn't have time to report it to the emperor." Mo Xuanyin replied seriously.
"No, the surroundings of Yunnan are not very peaceful, and when I send someone to understand the truth of the situation, it will not be too late for you to leave." The emperor looked worried.
Then a eunuch hurried in.
"Your Majesty, the news that the King of Yunnan is seriously ill has spread widely." Seeing that Mo Xuanyin was also present, the eunuch gradually put away his words.
"This ......" The emperor was a little embarrassed, but he didn't expect that the king of Yunnan was really seriously ill.
Mo Xuanyin took a step forward, bowed his hand, and said sincerely: "The minister implores the emperor to let the minister go back to Yunnan to visit his father." ”
In this situation, the emperor also knows how to do it, if he doesn't follow Mo Xuanyin's wishes, I'm afraid that the ministers will think that he is unreasonable.
"However, the county lord can't go with you." The emperor swept his beard, nodded and said.
Hearing his words, Mo Xuanyin was a little stunned, but before he could speak, he was interrupted again.
"The surroundings of Yunnan are dangerous, and the county lord doesn't know kung fu, so stay in the palace. The queen is thinking about her these days. The emperor said without dragging his feet.
Since this is the case, Mo Xuanyin can only agree.
When you return home:
"The emperor agreed?" Seeing Mo Xuanyin coming back, Gu Xiqian knew that her plan had succeeded.
"I'll leave later, and you'll have to protect yourself in the days I'm away, understand?" Mo Xuanyin put his hands on Gu Xiqian's shoulders, and his eyes were full of reassurance.
Gu Xiqian bit her lip, "Don't worry, take good care of the King of Yunnan when you go back." ”
After that, Gu Xiqian took off the talisman he had been wearing for many years and handed it to Mo Xuanyin.
"I heard that there is a war around Yunnan, you must be more careful." Gu Xiqian said slowly. Unexpectedly, he was taken into his arms by Mo Xuanyin. Then the subordinates packed up their things and followed Mo Xuanyin away. Looking at his departing back, Gu Xiqian felt a little reluctant.
"County lord, father-in-law asks to see." Liuyun walked over and approached Gu Xiqian and said.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Mo Xuanyin left, the palace sent someone over. Gu Xiqian did not hesitate to go to the main hall.
"County Lord, the queen is invited." As soon as my father-in-law came up, he got straight to the point.
The queen summoned her at this time? Gu Xiqian was a little puzzled for a moment.
Then Gu Xiqian followed her father-in-law into the palace and came to the queen's bedroom.
The queen was relaxing in the imperial garden, but Gu Xiqian waited for a long time. Only then did she come back slowly.
"The flowers in the garden are so beautiful." The queen couldn't help but sigh. She still has a few flowers in her hand.
Several concubines who usually won the queen's heart also walked in with her and echoed her, "Yes, thanks to the queen's careful care." ”
"See the queen mother, the noble concubine." Seeing them gradually walking towards this side, Gu Xiqian got up and gave up his seat.
"Why is the county lord here?"
"You're welcome, county lord, you sit, you sit."
Several concubines sat down with polite smiles.
"County Lord, do you know what I summoned you to the palace for today?" The queen looked at Gu Xiqian and asked with a serious face.
"Please also ask the queen to make it clear." Gu Xiqian looked dazed, and then gave up.
The queen noticed that Gu Xiqian used too much force when serving tea, and not only frowned again. "Didn't the Japanese palace tell you a few days ago, as the county lord and princess, you should still look like you, a lady." The queen reprimanded.
These words attracted the other concubines next to them to look at each other and discuss a lot.
"These ladies are the famous ladies of the largest family in the capital, and they know a lot of etiquette. I asked you to come today to make you study harder. As she spoke, the queen motioned for the other concubines to demonstrate.
Concubine Shu couldn't help but purse her lips and smiled, and glanced at Gu Xiqian with great disdain. I thought to myself, I didn't expect that Gui was the county lord, and even this little thing that a woman would have to be taught.
"When it comes to tea, it's about slow movements. It's like sometimes this tea is so hot that it can't help but burn your hands and mouth. Concubine Shu quipped, while noticing the change in the expression on Gu Xiqian's face.
"And this sitting posture, you must be dignified, otherwise, when you drink tea, you will be no different from a man." Concubine Qin looked like she didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and continued to mend the knife.
The queen looked at Gu Xiqian, her eyes were full of seriousness, as if she was warning Gu Xiqian that if she didn't study modestly today, she wouldn't let her go back.
"Thank you for your advice." Gu Xiqian tried her best to hold back her impatience, and then imitated the action they said just now, which was quite presentable.
"That's right." After all, the queen nodded with satisfaction, and continued: "In the next few days, you must enter the palace on time every day. ”
"Queen Mother, I'm afraid it's a little embarrassing." Gu Xiqian bit her lip, she didn't expect to be restricted from freedom in the past few days, so she naturally resisted in her heart.
Seeing this, the other concubines spoke one after another: "Isn't it that the county lord has something important to do these days?" ”
"It's not ......" Gu Xiqian knew that the queen would definitely die to investigate, and if she lied, it would be a big trouble for her to find out.
The queen twisted her handkerchief, wiped off the remaining tea on her lips, and opened her red lips lightly, "We have been idle in the palace these days, so you will enter the palace on time." ”
forced her to enter the palace like this, as for what the purpose was, the queen did not say clearly.
It seems that Gu Xiqian can only obediently obey Yi's order.
It's rare that Mo Xuanyin is not in the house, and originally thought that he could go out and have a big fun, but he didn't expect that the bamboo basket would be empty. Gu Xiqian was instantly disappointed.
Yunnan Country:
Mo Xuanyin hurried up, and finally arrived before dusk.
"The prince is back, please come here." When the servant saw Mo Xuanyin's dusty servant, he hurriedly came up to greet him.
Although this is his own son, he has become a legend, and the dragon has not seen the end.
When he came to the palace of the king of Yunnan and watched the servants coming and going in the corridor, Mo Xuanyin felt that things must not be so simple. "Father, mother." Mo Xuanyin quickened her pace, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw her mother sitting in front of the bed, and her father leaning on her arms with a pale face. There were also a few imperial doctors around the king of Yunnan.
"Yin'er is back, Lord Wang, Lord Wang." The princess opened her mouth wide in excitement and shook the body of the king of Yunnan.
"Mother, what's wrong with my father?" Mo Xuanyin approached the side of the bed and looked at the King of Yunnan with a worried expression.
The princess twisted the silk cloth to wipe away the remaining tears from the corners of her eyes, and replied in a choked voice: "I was caught a cold a few days ago, and I have been getting better these days, but as soon as the weather changes, it becomes heavier..."
Suddenly, Mo Xuanyin became even more self-remorseful.
"This is a new prescription from Lao Chen, and this time it will definitely help the prince's condition." The Imperial Physician scrambled to present the prescription with it.
"You've never said that. The prince has been taking medicine for so long, and he hasn't gotten better. The princess suddenly scolded angrily.
The king of Yunnan opened his eyes in a daze, and his atheistic eyes fell on Mo Xuanyin, staying for a long time.
"Seeing Yin'er, this king's illness is more than half cured." The king of Yunnan said with a smile.
Sure enough, heart disease still has to be treated.
"Father, drink some medicine." Mo Xuanyin took the medicine that the imperial doctor had just boiled and fed him. "Yin'er, in the current situation, you can't go to the capital anymore." Suddenly, the king of Yunnan said seriously.
Mo Xuanyin was a little in a dilemma, "Father, this is not appropriate." ”
"You will stay for a few days, and then you will talk about it when your father is well." As soon as the princess saw the emperor coughing, she hurriedly helped him finish his words.
Since this is the case, Mo Xuanyin felt that he had no choice but to agree.
After returning to the room, Mo Xuanyin picked up the pen and wrote a letter to Gu Xiqian to indicate today's incident.
As soon as Liuyun received the letter, he immediately took it to Gu Xiqian, "County Lord, what did the prince say?" ”
"He won't be able to come back for a few days." Gu Xiqian can understand. Then he wrote a letter that reassured him and went back.
